Your 2 Cents’ Worth for Sunday, September 10, 2017

OK, Congress. The ball is in your court. Get consensus on DREAMers and pass a law quickly or risk the economic mess your inability to govern causes. Consider the competition that 800,000 skilled, educated Hispanic deportees will provide U.S. business while the U.S. tries to find and train replacements.

— Sometimes I wonder

Is my white unemployed-and-out-of-unemployment-benefits nephew racing to Texas to take jobs rebuilding areas damaged by Harvey? No. He thinks he's owed something better. Is he updating his resume to take a job soon to be vacated by deported DREAMers if Congress doesn't get moving? No. He doesn't want to leave this area.

— Some folks want to whine-others want to work

I'm a trained professional who makes only a few cents more than $15 per hour. And burger flippers feel they deserve that wage? More power to them! We've been convinced that stagnant wages with huge bonuses to CEOs is the natural order of things — look at inflation vs. wage increases. Workers deserve more.

— Don't fight among yourselves

It is stupid to pull the rug out from under innocent DREAMers and cowardly to hide behind Jeff Sessions in announcing the demise of DACA. As always, “Orangeman” makes the wrong decision and executes it with a total lack of class.

We can now have no trust whatsoever for the DNR, along with Reynolds, Ernst, King, Grassley,Trump, most farmers, and all the rest of the dumbbells in the corporate world. Money, money, money. Climate change deniers, you are in this bunch too. What a bunch of idiots. Get off our planet, you twits.

— UILOYAL

Why is North Korea developing a nuke capable of reaching the US. Is Trump not doing the job fast enough?

— Trump policies are epic, ongoing disasters

To the media: Please refer to Steve King as the congressman from northwest Iowa and not from Iowa. He does not represent our entire state. If northwest Iowa has no self-respect or dignity, that's their choice. The rest of the state does not want to be identified with a buffoon. Thank you.

— Known by the company you keep

With fall approaching and the beautiful fall colors think about the national parks. Think what will happen to them if Trump allows mining and oil drilling in these national treasure.
